Justice Minister Helen McEntee is facing intense pressure to reverse her decision to approve the transfer of a convicted murderer back to the UK.

Tracey Tully, the mother of champion boxer Kevin Sheehy, said Ms McEntee is responsible for the suffering her family is facing as a result of the possible repatriation of Englishman Logan Jackson.
